Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel

Nomination: This article fails to meet Wikipedia notability guideline requirements as it has failed to introduce significant coverage in secondary sources. Although this article has introduced sources, these sources only trivially mention the subject and provide no significant coverage.

Reason for re-nomination:

The reason given for abrupt closure of the first nomination is outweighed by the non-notability of this article. Good- or bad-faith, this article remains not notable.
The reason given for abrupt closure of the first nomination is invalid: Although I asked Joe Chill (talk · contribs) to nominate the article for deletion, I did alert him of the issue of faith. Fleet Command (talk) 23:02, 31 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redrect to Microsoft PowerToys where it's already covered. I've not seen any article discuss this one separately, but there are plenty of reliable independent sources for the PowerToys as a set. Pcap ping 13:53, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- See also Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Power_Calculator, which I nominated for the same reason. Pcap ping 13:54, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thanks, Pcap. I agree. I did not know it is part of PowerToys. Fleet Command (talk) 18:23, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Redirect to Microsoft PowerToys. --Hm2k (talk) 10:10, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Excuse me? Redirect and Keep are antonyms, aren't they? Keep means "don't touch" but Redirect means "delete contents, replace with a redirect to ..." (as was the case with List of ISO image software.) Merge is the middle ground: It means "merge the contents, delete contents of the original, replace with a redirect".

Keep Two nominations within a week for a stub seems unduly harsh. Justin talk 17:12, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
